I work well in a messy room. I just make higher piles.

It'll NEVER be right...NEVER. There is NO solution.........because, you see, the GREMLINS come in and mess it up.....no matter how often you clean or when you clean, they're watching. When they see you turn your back, they mess it up!!!! Oh, but they ARE nice -- you see, at my house, the gremlins always bring in new fabric...no, I don't buy it...the gremlins do!!! just wish they'd quit using my checking account!!!!!!!!! ;)


That's my story and I'm sticking to it. :thumbup:

I had a friend help me and we got through a lot of stuff - What I didn't want she had first dibs and then it was donated to a school for the mentally challenged for crafts. I feel much better

This is what I have been doing for three days moving things around in my sewing room. If I ever get done doing this I might get my Quilts done
I keep trying to make the room bigger and just doesnt work!

So I know what you are saying

I straighted up my sewing room "The Shop" earlier this week because DS is coming in and I want him to take pictures of it so I can post them on here. He is a semi-professional photographer.

When you find out, let me know! :thumbup:
I finally moved my machine into the living room and don't worry about what the sew-cave looks like. It's destined to need some help on a daily basis.
there is hardly a day goes by that I am not messing and gauming in there, but eventually I get on with something.
My oldest agrees with me, it really doesn't matter how much i do or don't produce as long as I am enjoying myself. I like the way I taught her to think, LOL! ;)
